Texas A&M baseball secures talented 2028 RHP with latest commit

Cooper LeRoy joins the Aggies’ 2028 class after showing promise on the mound and at the plate in Arizona.

Texas A&M baseball has added another promising arm to its 2028 recruiting class with the commitment of Cooper LeRoy, a right-handed pitcher from Arizona. LeRoy, who grew up in Gilbert, Arizona and plays at Perry High School, is known for his impressive skills on both the mound and at the plate. Standing at 6-foot-4, he has garnered attention for his ability to throw a fastball that has reached 94 mph, a mark that Perfect Game lists in the 99th percentile among its recorded players in the 2028 class.

His arm strength was further highlighted at the 2026 Junior National Showcase, where he reached 92 mph, struck out batters with his fastball and slider, and demonstrated consistent delivery. LeRoy's hitting ability has also been noted, with a maximum exit velocity of 107.4 mph and a 396-foot batted-ball distance. Despite having two high school seasons left, his current performance makes him a valuable prospect for the Aggies to watch.
